We're the Only Ones Eating Cake Enough

A Clarke County sheriff's deputy's gun was stolen late Saturday or early Sunday while he was attending a birthday party for another deputy on Smokey Place, Athens-Clarke police said.

The deputy was off duty when he went to his co-worker's house off Smokey Road in northern Clarke County for her party Saturday night, and during the celebration he loaned his truck to the other deputy's teenage son so he could go to the store...On the way to the store, the teen picked up an 18-year-old neighbor...

So the cop sets the whole scenario up and now they want to prosecute the neighbor kid?

I hope he pleads he just found a gun left unsecured and didn't steal it at all--but just gave it to a responsible adult--his mother-- to return to the police. Note no charges have been filed against the officer--as they would be against any one of us--for leaving an unsecured gun out for the taking while he goes off and parties.
